My notification ringtone reverts back to Zeta after I reboot every so often.
[HTC Amaze 4G] brooklynite:
Thanks guys, I currently flashed Forth Bar to try that out (doesnt have

HTC trace either errrrgggg but excellent ROM as well) but wanted to thank you for your responses. I think its certainly working in some areas and not others specially I remember it not working in the browser where I use it most.
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:
Hmm. Thats weird.

I just use my own sound files and copy paste into /system/media/audio. Settings never reverted to any other sounds after reboots for me.

How to flash kernel + ROM

Sorry for the noob question but how do you flash the kernel along with the ROM? I noticed that I have the wifi error so need to re-flash the kernel, but not sure how do I go about doing it. Can someone be kind enough to post simple instructions on doing so please? Also, do you flash the kernel first & then flash the ROM? Or flash ROM 1st, then kernel? Or sequence doesn't matter? Thanks in advance!
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
after you flashed the rom then download zip from post #4. unzip it to your computer. connect phone to computer with USB cable. run the flash.bat file from the unzipped files folder.

that's all.

alternatively you can flash it with flashgui but I am not familiar with that. the recommended way of flashing it by NRG is via the batch file the way I listed it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chinesinho:
Do I need to turn on usb debugging mode?
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
yes. but by default it should be already enabled.
[HTC Amaze 4G] arpruss:
RootDim does not activate after reboot because I am afraid of a user turning their brightness so low that the screen turns off (on some devices, some low settings turn off the screen), and so I don't want RootDim active after boot.

Since the source code for RootDim is available, anybody who really wants to can add post-boot activation to it.

GREAT rom! Will be donating if/when I find a part-time job! :)

I don't know if the messenger app is the exact same as the stock one but just with a different icon, but some of the texts appear in the wrong order if the time stamp is the same. Didn't happen with the other one. Also, I did not wipe when flashing the latest version over the previous feb 3rd version.
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:
Do u mean Messages app, or Messenger app like with Google+?

Whatever the case, it's usually always highly recommended to wipe, and Super-Wipe! Will probably fix those minor issues..
[HTC Amaze 4G] YungMage:
It doesn't matter which you flash first. I would flash rom first since it comes with Flash GUI app. go into flash gui app and choose flash kernel. browse to ex_sd card and choose the rom file. Choose flash image accept warning then choose standard reboot option that pops up. You're done Hit the thx button if I helped.
[HTC Amaze 4G] realitysconcierge:
I've had that issue for a really long time now.. I thought it was just a quirk! Maybe I'll have to look into it. I have a feeling the issue is coming from titanium backup maybe.
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Not coming from titanium backup because I don't use it and have had same issue. It's usually during a txt conversation when multiple messages are being sent and received at the same time

Charging problem...

Hi to all!

I got a weird problem today! Was on the road for work and battery was low... So I decided to plug the charger (HTC Original USB to mini USB cable) wich normally works fine! To my surprise, the battery went from 35% to 29% in about 20 minutes... The Orange light was on so I thought all was ok! I'm here often and browsing trough all the different roms but never heard of this problem!

Last Energy version (feb 27) with Stock Kernell. I flashed the newest recovery 5.8.0.9 yesterday and charged the phone all night so all was ok. When I got home, I charged the phone with a standard (not HTC original) USB cable and it was charging fine...

Anyone can explain to me what happened??!!:eek:
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
your car charger may not had been delivering enough amperage. maybe it was limited at 500 mah. if that is the case you have to charge the phone with the screen off. try that next time. keep screen off and it should charge. but still slowly. it is also possible that if you have a power hungry app running then if it's "eating" more power than the charger can provide, the battery would still discharge. it is normal.

but try it first with the screen off and see if that changes anything. normally if i charge my phone on a standard laptop USB port and the screen stays on the battery would stay around the same percentage or would charge very very slowly, like 2% in a few hours, etc.
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
haha that's exactly what I was thinking
[HTC Amaze 4G] tagme:
Alright! Will try that!! I find it weird cause it's not the first time I use my car charger but!! I'll give it a try!!

Thanks!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
Seriously I think he is working on the Sensation since he can do more with that phone. :( There isn't anything much anyone can do with the Amaze now until S-Off is achieved so we can get custom radios and more customized kernels.
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
Sh*+ i could care less about s-off. That still wont get us much. What we need is wifi driver source code so more can be done with kernels

[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
haha. good one!
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
S-Off is a big holdup AJ! Without S-Off, the wifi driver source code will most likely never be figured out. HTC doesn't want devs to get the wifi source because it has "proprietary code" which is not public domain. What a load of crap! I think if and when S-Off is finally achieved, the phone will be completely unlocked and then the full source code including wifi and the radio could be dumped and anything is possible after that! That is why so many devs are not even interested in working with this ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
Yo mama so fat she bought the Note......and ate it.

I wouldn't hold your breathe on sense 3.5 port, don't think it's an easy job.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eichenberg:
I want to preference that I know nothing about the inner workings and kernals and what nots, but I had a thought. Is it possible that since this phone is a quad band phone capable of running on AT&T 3G/4G network that if we ever get S-Off we would be able to tweak the kernel or whatever source to allow cross GSM usage without T-Mobile and AT&T knowing it, thus maybe it is the providers which are holding up S-Off. I have no idea and maybe talking out of my a**, but it makes me wonder.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
the providers have nothing to do with S-OFF. it's the manufacturer (HTC).
[HTC Amaze 4G] eichenberg:
Just saying that maybe it is the providers that are telling/forcing HTC not to release S-off.
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Well, I was referring to another forum site when I said elsewhere. NRG devs for a few phones, so it makes sense that he doesn't perm reside in this thread.
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:
I believe it will be done! Xboarder56 did it, NRGZ28 will do it too.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
NRG will do a 3.5 ROM. he can do it already but he did state a few pages back that bluetooth will not be working until the issue can be resolved.

for me bluetooth is essential as I refuse to drive and hold my phone to my ear. need my bluetooth. I also stream music to my car radio over bluetooth as well.
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Yeah, but for those that don't need bt, it would be kind if a nice change of pace. I agree, when 3.5 comes, it will most likely be a fresh ROM, for I have also heard porting 3.5 to the Amaze is a tall task
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
That's the whole point. NRG doesn't do anything half-assed and Bluetooth is a BIG issue with many! If we had S-Off, there would be no problem with Bluetooth and 3.5 and ICS. S-Off is extremely important for our device to move forward into the 21st century!

I do remember reading a while back that HTC claims that the radio/bluetooth code is proprietary to and owned by T-Mobile and that is why they can't/won't release the full code or give us S-Off. BULL!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
same thing was with the sensation. but in the end we did get S-OFF. now we just need enough devs to work on the Amaze to achieve S-OFF for it as well.
[HTC Amaze 4G] NRGZ28:
That's probably because you chose a notification tone on your sdcard...
[HTC Amaze 4G] NRGZ28:
All good points :) However, S-OFF has nothing to do with bluetooth problems in the 3.5 ROMs. 3.5 ROMs are being ported from devices that have different bluetooth stacks. The calls being made to these stacks are all deeply rooted int he 3.5 ROM's framework and requires tedious editing to make work. S-OFF won't do ANYTHING to help with that, expect maybe let you flash a different bootscreen. I really don't see what the big deal about s-off is, personally.
[HTC Amaze 4G] NRGZ28:
That's true. However now I Switched back to using the Amaze day to day. I want to do a Sense 3.5 port, but no bluetooth is a deal breaker. Remember my first ROM for the Amaze that I cooked blindly ? Nobody wanted it because of that :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
Well I think you should port the Rom, even if Bluetooth doesn't work, cuz lots of people like me , dont use it all.

Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G using Xparent Green Tapatalk
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
yeap. i remember. main reason I did not use the early december builds were because of the bluetooth functionality. while there are people that do not care about it. i do and apparently there are many more that need it. like i stated. while i am driving i have to use BT. and i also stream music to my car stereo via BT as well. so if you plan to keep supporting the 3.0 rom after the 3.5 has been released with no bluetooth then that is fine.
[HTC Amaze 4G] nofroyo:
I just want to say thank you NRGZ28 for your most greatest and impressive rom for my amaze. You are truly a great dev and your work stands out from others from what I see. Your rom has made my experience with Amaze far better than previous roms I have used in the past. I have no issues with the rom all works great out of the box so to speak lol.

Thanks again and keep up the good work on all future roms, regardless on how long it takes you. Great rom and overall a great experience.

Thanks again NRGZ28, my amaze is truly amazing :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
+1 for an NRG 3.5 Sense ROM!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
-1 if it does not have BT. :D

we should have a poll setup. anyone know how to create one?

should have 3 options:

1: NRG 3.5 ROM with BT broken

2: NRG 3.5 ROM with BT working

3: NRG 3.0 ROM as is today with working everything!

:)
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
I swear I will get brain cancer before anybody with my lack of bt usage... I really should get into it... They're just so darn uncomfy
[HTC Amaze 4G] marleyfan61:
I don't use the thing stuck in my ear. My car has built-in bt which is way better. I hate those ear appendage things too.
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
wouldn't Bluetooth signal/waves create just as much radiation as our phones? just a thought, probably wrong though lol

im on the +1 on sense 3.5, the people who need Bluetooth can just stay on 3.0 and the people who just want a upgraded ROM can use 3.5; every ones happy!
[HTC Amaze 4G] eichenberg:
I agree and think he should port 3.5 to keep development alive. I have stated that I use BT all the time as well and I won't move to 3.5 until BT is working, but I think NRGZ should keep on developing and those of us that need BT can stay with 3.0 for the time being.
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
another problem, even if you have a high output charger, it may not have the middle two pins shorted, which makes the phone think it's just a regular USB port and therefore will not draw more than 500mA... so if you're using an "intensive" app or multiple wireless things at the same time (ie: radio, wifi, and bt or gps all at once) then you will use more power than what it will draw from the charger... I have modded all my car chargers by pulling them apart and soldering the middle two pins of the usb port so that the phone thinks they are "AC Chargers" this way the phone will draw the maximum current available to it... my phone charges much faster now!

yeah I couldn't live without BT even though I hardly ever use it, not being able to use it when I need it is definitely a deal breaker... glad to see you have an amaze and are deving for it as well... my G2 busted a couple weeks ago, otherwise I probably would have waited for the OneX (or whatever it's called now)... so if you've bothered at all with that sense 1.9 rom for Vision, you can forget about it unless you really want complete, I have no use for it now =) I was looking forward to trying it though... lol...

Brain cancer?! A little off topic. I think that the people who said only if bluetooth is working because sense 3.0 has everything working kinda proved the sense 3.5 point... Lol not bring another rom to the amaze if one is nearly perfect. Everything has bugs but you fix those bugs. Just a thought though.
[HTC Amaze 4G] lnxpro:
If NRG would release a Sense 3.5 ROM and BT is not working I can only imagine there would be at least 30+ new posts on the thread stating:

" Hey NRG, Nice ROM, btw... bluetooth is not working.... "

that would be funny as hell. and of course just as we have people posting now that wifi is not working and we have to tell each one to reflash the kernel there would be the ones that do not read that BT will NOT be working on the 3.5 ROM for the time being.

not trying to predict the future but the way things are going that will almost be given :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
if he states that Bluetooth isn't working then the person who says that must be completely clueless lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Brain cancer from using/not using BT is off topic? Even when BT is the topic. Ok topic police. I'm sorry for going off topic in this thread that has clearly been nothing but on topic between releases. Good luck with that, you will get your Super Moderator badge in no time chief :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
Then NRG will get bombarded with "how come BT doesn't work?" and "When are you going to fix BT?" I can see it now. It is inevitable!

Oh oh, lnxpro beat me to it. Stratax, you must be completely clueless on how many people DO ask that question! LOL :D

---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:26 PM ----------

We have to use BT in California. We have no choice. If you get caught even using your phone on speakerphone in your lap, you can get busted. I don't like the damn ear piece in my ear either but I don't have a bluetooth adapter in my car other than my GPS so I need the BT ear piece.

---------- Post added at 05:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 PM ----------

NRG,

So if S-OFF is not so important as I keep hearing and of course we can flash just about anything, why have all the other devs steered clear of the amazing Amaze?? What is their problem? Is it only because it is not a world phone? There must be many, many USA devs building ROMS for other phones so what is the story?? Is it just that Devs prefer the complete source code for everything to work their wonders?
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
I have no intention of receiving any praises from XDA what so ever, just saying it kind of went from sense 3.5 to bluetooth which is okay then to a brain cancer, when in reality just about anything can give it to you lol... @InXpro so true about the Hey bluetooth isn't working.
[HTC Amaze 4G] stratax:
By what ive seen in xs 3.5 thread I haven't seen any questions about Bluetooth, just 3000 people asking why they get bootloops because they didn't read the instructions on flashing the kernel lol
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Don't forget the soft brick posts on amaze general over here! I'm getting to the point that if you don't read you deserve problems when your working with a $250 phone... Imagine if we had s-off how may bricks their would be. Nonetheless
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
I tried flashing that new senseless ROM that just came out CapRom... just to try it out and see what a senseless ROM was like on our phone, and it soft bricked it (stuck at splash screen). Luckily I made a backup, right? Well XBoarder's touch recovery 5.8.0.9. said the md5sums were mismatched. So I reflashed the latest Energy ROM that I did the backup on and tried again to restore and it wouldn't restore any of my backups... I'm now looking to see what the most stable recovery is so I can flash that and try to restore my backup on sd card that way...

Long story short... Stick with Energy ROM... If it ain't broke... don't fix it! :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] frodoboy:
Were you running 5.8.0.9 when you made the backup?? If you were using a different recovery, then made the backup, then flashed the ROM and new recovery, I could see how that would cause the problem. If you didn't do it that way, maybe try reflashing the ROM and reflashing the kernel twice and then run recovery and see if it will restore. That is strange!
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
Cool thing is I noticed more graphic enhancements that were added since I haven't restored my themes backup.

Very nice NRG

Yep. Did backup right before wipe and flash if new ROM. When I found myself in a soft brick, I rebooted into fastboot then recovery and try to restore and md5sum didn't match. So I wiped and flashed the energy Rom I was on when made backup and tried and got the same results

EDIT: 5.8.0.9. for whatever reason wouldn't restore the backup I JUST MADE before wiping, but whatever... It is restoring my backup from a week ago when I first tried the touch recovery... oh well... Not too far off I guess

Ha! I just flashed X's new 5.8.0.9 CWM recovery and the first thing I did was do another CWM backup because of your problem. So now I have one for 5.5.0.4 and another one for 5.8.0.9 just in case! I'm not flashing any new ROM soon however unless NRG comes out with one which is doubtful anytime soon.

So I was changing my icons with ROM toolbox to honeycomb icons. I got all of them to change EXCEPT for the 4G icon and the signal icon. I was successful in changing the battery, 3G, WiFi, vibrate, adb, and usb icons, but not the 4g and signal icons.

Is that because they're a part of the ROM's added theming by NRG and the themed icons override the ones I'm trying to use?

Thanks a lot man for all of this, but from a noobs untrained eye, none of those look like any of the icons for signal, WiFi, and 4G. Those are the 3 that I noticed wouldn't change. This is at least a start, and its much appreciated. Thanks again. I'm gonna Google what those mean and go from there.

I've tried a few battery icons, and they all worked for me. Just make sure u pick one that goes down in 1% increments. U prolly had a 20% increment and so it wouldn't drop til it got to 80%
